ANIMATED L-BAND + CLEAR AREA GUARD
Give the message space.
Keep the picture visible.
Your artwork deserves room. Animated L-bands play with fade-in and fade-out transitions while the main programme smoothly resizes into its clear area and returns as the band finishes.
- Build an L-band playlist and define the order and loops.
- Set a start delay and repeat interval for automatic playback.
- Choose automatic clear area or custom master-video size and position.
- Position logos and L-bands on the visual canvas; organise artwork in the L-band library category.

Lose the waiting.
Export Clip creates a downloadable MP4. For compatible recordings without overlays, the fast path copies the original video and audio. Timestamp resets are handled by joining the valid recorded intervals without another encode.
Load to Encoder (E) takes your selected ranges directly into a clean HLS segment workflow. Pick an encoder, then Queue Next or Play Now—without waiting for an MP4 render. Apply channel branding in the encoder.

Take the live moment.
Keep your rundown.
A breaking update does not have to wait for the playlist. Add multiple live inputs, choose a source and its time on air, then take it when it is ready.

- HTTPS
- RTMP
- RTMPS
- UDP
- SRT
- YouTube
- Browser + audio
- Prepare before taking. The current clip keeps playing while the next clip or live URL is acquired and buffered.
- Choose the duration. Give each live input a defined time on air, measured from the switch to that source.
- Return automatically. Once the timed insert finishes, resume the playlist while the master channel output keeps running.

FROM EXPORT TO ON AIR
Your clip is ready.
Choose its next move.
Follow export progress at the top of the trim window. Once the clip is complete, keep a local copy or send it straight to the encoder you choose.
One completed clip. A choice of encoders. Three useful next steps.
Download locally
Save the finished trimmed clip to your local system for use in your own production workflow.
Play Now on your encoder
Select an encoder and take the exported clip to air immediately, replacing its currently playing item.
Queue Next in the rundown
Let the current clip finish. Your newly trimmed clip plays immediately after it, rather than waiting at the end of the playlist.

PLAY THE PART YOU NEED
Same clip.
A different cut.
Set IN and OUT when adding or editing a playlist item. Save the selected duration in the rundown and the encoder plays only that section of the file.
- Preview and refine the range in the playlist editor
- Save playback points without another export
- Reuse the source clip for different playlist cuts
READY FOR YOUR DAILY RUNDOWN

the way you work.
From a local news desk to a multi-channel operation, keep the essentials within the same workspace.
Discuss your setupPlayback on your terms
Play once, repeat a clip or loop a playlist. Set a playlist item's IN/OUT range without re-exporting; the encoder plays only that selected section.
Branding you can reuse
Manage logo visibility, position and size. Use presets to bring familiar compositions back into view.
Media you can manage
Upload local clips to the media library or playlist. Preview, download, rename or delete them, with playback-range and channel overlay controls in the encoder.
Uptime and bitrate, in view
Check channel uptime and live output bitrate, plus each destination's publishing status and measured live bitrate.

- Discuss channels, hardware and destinations
Can I play vertical and Reels-format clips?+
Yes. Upload supported vertical video files and play them in a 9:16 portrait channel, or create a 16:9 desktop channel. This describes playback of your video files; it does not automatically download Instagram Reels or publish posts to Instagram.
How do animated L-bands protect the programme picture?+
The clear area guard shrinks and repositions the main video to suit the L-band, with animated return and fade transitions. Use automatic fit or custom size and position. Arrange bands in a playlist, set loops and choose start and repeat timing.
What makes export fast, and when should I use Load to Encoder?+
Compatible no-overlay MP4 exports copy the existing picture and sound. Recorder timestamp resets are joined without an extra encode. Use Load to Encoder for clean HLS segments when you want selected moments in the rundown without waiting for an MP4. Export Clip remains the route for a portable downloadable file.
Can I use a web page as a live source?+
Yes. The Browser source captures a page with animation and audio, with capture-size and frame-rate controls. Prepare and interact with that same page off air before taking it into the channel output.
What do I need for Instagram Live?+
Use an eligible Instagram account with Live Producer access and enter the server URL and stream key supplied for that live session. Destination availability and platform requirements depend on your account. OnAir also supports YouTube, Facebook and custom streaming destinations.
How does Live DVR support daily playout?+
Keep the channel’s live feed recording while you review recent content. Latest loads a 30-minute timeline and initially positions the preview 15 minutes behind the live edge. You can also choose 45-minute, one-hour or two-hour windows, mark IN/OUT and jump back to either marked point.
Can I use clips received through WhatsApp or WeTransfer?+
Yes. Download the received clip to your system, then upload supported video to the encoder media library or straight into a playlist. Use the whole clip or set IN/OUT playback points, and apply channel logo overlays from the encoder workspace. A separately trimmed or manually encoded copy is not required before upload.
Can I trim a playlist item without exporting it again?+
Yes. Choose IN and OUT in the playlist range editor and save those playback points. The encoder plays only the selected section, without creating another exported clip. Play-once, loop-clip and loop-playlist modes remain available.
Can I take a live input, then return to the playlist?+
The live-source workflow supports HTTP, HTTPS, RTMP/RTMPS, UDP, SRT, YouTube, Facebook and Browser inputs with a chosen time on air. The current clip continues while the next source is prepared; once ready, the source is taken for its selected duration, then playback returns to the playlist while the channel output stays running.
Can I combine segments and add animated branding?+
Mark multiple IN/OUT selections, add them as segments and merge them into one export. Apply animated MOV overlays with alpha transparency, such as logos and exclusive bands, during export. Reuse the branded clip in encoder playlists or download it for your other publishing workflows.
What happens after a clip finishes exporting?+
Choose what happens next: download the finished clip to your local system, select an encoder and use Play Now to replace its currently playing item, or choose Queue Next to play the trimmed clip immediately after the current item finishes. Export progress remains visible at the top of the trim window while the clip is being prepared.
Can one encoder stream to multiple social channels and servers?+
Yes. Add separate destinations for several YouTube channels, several Facebook channels and your custom streaming servers. Send the same channel output to them at the same time, with individual destination settings and enabled states. RTMP/RTMPS, SRT and UDP destination options are available, with HLS preview in the browser.
What does the system cost?+
Request a quote for your planned channels and deployment. Sales can walk you through current licensing, hardware requirements and support options.
Can we see it with our own workflow?+
Share your input sources, output destinations, channel count and clipping needs when requesting a demo. This gives us a useful starting point for a tailored walkthrough.
